Will Stargate: Universe be the Star Trek: Voyager of the Stargate universe? Time will tell, although taking into consideration the age of the characters that are currently being cast for the show, I’m getting this sinking feeling they’re going the Stargate 90210 route with this one. We already know that the show will take place mostly onboard a ship that is lost in some unexplored part of the universe, and must find a way home. This means new characters, new aliens, new enemies — pretty much new everything for the Stargate universe. Now Sci Fi Channel has your first look at concept artwork for the ship at the center of the show, called Destiny.

Stargate Universe centers on a simple reconnaissance mission that turns into a never-ending quest as a new crew of Stargate explorers gates onto the Destiny, an Ancient ship that is unable to return to Earth. They will travel to the far reaches of the universe, encountering new races, enemies and adventures.

P.S. I like how the Sci Fi Wire site acts like they just got these concept art out of the blue and it’s a big scoop for them. Um, dudes, you OWN the show, it’s YOUR show! In any case, a look at the Ancients ship Destiny below.
